Infestation: Survivor Stories

WTF!... Me and a friend buy this game on steam summer sale, we've played like 5 times since, today we try to login and my friend got this message saying "your account has been permanently banned", with no reason... this actually got my interest because in game (on the chat screen) you can actually see people getting banned every 3 – 5 minutes… so I google it, you can search any kind of “combination”, if you enter the name of the game and the word “banned” there is hundreds of complains about people getting banned without cheating or a reason, not even a freaking email… and some “theories” saying that they actually banned you to make you buy the game again… seriously no one will buy this game (that is actually pretty bad…) again… so here’s my complain… and a question, I don’t need a refund, my friend either… he doesn’t want another account… we want this really bad and shenanigans game to be out of Steam , so how can we do that?.

people get banned not randomly, not so they can buy the game again. its just misunderstanding and misinformation about what is going on.

they are banned for being flagged by either punkbuster or fairfight. they are banned for hacking, glitching, exploiting bugs/limiters, also for repeatedly ignoring warnings and kicks. for having multiple accounts to go around a ban, and yes for false positives and bugs.

if u r having problems with pb do this

get/run pbsvc.exe

then get and run pbsetup.exe add the game and set game path to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\The War Z\pb

and please post of any prior messages, warnings, crashes, kicks, or other issues that we happening befor you were banned for example pb unable to connect to servers or pb unable to update definitions or perhaps multiple accounts running game, etc
